Veuve Clicquot Extra Brut Extra Old is an ultra-premium Champagne with an unparalleled silky smooth taste and intensity, composed exclusively of the legendary House's acclaimed reserve wines. Double aged for a perfect aromatic balance, this wine is fresh, complex, and features exceptionally fine bubbles.
The cuvée is comprised of 45% Pinot Noir, 27% Chardonnay, and 28% Meunier, blended from 20 different crus from reserve wines from the harvests of 1990, 1998, 1999, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2012. Following the prise de mousse, the Champagne matures for a minimum of three additional years, resulting in a mature, complex wine with a low dosage of sugar.
The drinking experience is exceptional, boasting a silky, light effervescence with an aromatic palette of very ripe fruits and a hint of licorice, almond paste and acacia honey notes for impressive balance and richness, and the fresh mineral purity for which Veuve Clicquot is known.
Enjoy Veuve Clicquot Extra Brut Extra Old with pork, chicken, smoked meats, lobster, fish, foie gras, or dry aged cheeses. It is also a festive aperitif to enjoy before the meal. This exquisite Champagne is truly a memorable gift for any occasion.
